Bird's Opening: From's Gambit

 Réti Opening: Queen's Gambit Invitation

Englund Gambit

The Englund Gambit is an opening for Black against White's 1.d4. Although similar in appearance to the Budapest Gambit, the Englund is not a sound opening and, therefore, not popular among stronger players. However, the Englund Gambit does contain traps that can catch many players off guard and result in quick wins.

Queen's Gambit

The Queen's Gambit is one of the oldest and most reputable 1.d4 openings for White. Unlike 1.e4 openings, the Queen's Gambit usually evolves into a strategic game rather than an all-out tactical battle. Despite being around for centuries, this opening is still one of the cornerstones of every elite players' repertoire. It's also an excellent choice for beginners and intermediate players.

Dutch Defense: Staunton Gambit

Réti Opening: Réti Gambit

In the Reti - named for Richard Reti, one of the founders of Hypermodernism - White combines the move Nf3 and the fianchetto of the king's-bishop with the flank blow c2-c4. Thus he is trying to attack the black center from the side.

Pros:

Positionally subtle

Long-term pressure

Cons:

Lack of immediate pressure on Black

Less chances of a direct attack

Black can gain space by ...d4

Sicilian Defense: Wing Gambit

King's Gambit

The King's Gambit is an age-old aggressive opening that Romantic chess players revered. Largely employed by top players for more than 300 years, this opening leads to open games that are exciting and, in most cases, decisive.

With the rise of engines and computer analysis, top players have virtually abandoned the King's Gambit in high-stakes games because of its risky nature. However, tactical players who enjoy sharp games can still employ this opening to play for a fabulous (and usually sacrificial) attack to win the game in style.

Budapest Gambit

King's Gambit Accepted

The King's Gambit Accepted is the key test of the King's Gambit. Black calls White's "bluff" and captures the pawn on f4. One of Black's key strategies is to hold onto the pawn and thus restrict the Bc1.
